Project description:Smoothened (SMO)-inhibitors recently entered clinical trials for sonic-hedgehog driven medulloblastoma (SHH-MB). Clinical response appears highly variable. To understand the mechanism(s) of primary resistance and to identify pathways co-operating with aberrant SHH-signaling, we sequenced a large cohort of SHH-MBs across all age groups by sequencing, DNA methylation and expression profiling. Our data show that most adults but only half of the pediatric patients with SHH-MB will respond to SMO inhibition as predicted by molecular analysis of the primary tumor and tested in the SHH-xenografts, demonstrating that the next generation of SMO-inhibitor trials should be based on these predictive biomarkers. To further dissect the biological differences between the different age groups within SHH medulloblastomas, we looked at the DNA methylation profiles of SHH medulloblastoma samples. We investigated the DNA methylation profiles of 46 SHH medulloblastomas across all age groups using the Illumina 450k methylation array.

Project description:Aberrant Shh signaling promotes tumor growth in diverse human cancers. The importance of Shh signaling is particularly evident in medulloblastoma and basal cell carcinoma (BCC), where inhibitors targeting the Shh pathway component Smoothened (Smo) show great therapeutic promise. However, the emergence of drug resistance limits long-term efficacy and the mechanisms of resistance remain poorly understood. Using new culturing techniques, we established a cohort of Shh pathway-driven medulloblastoma cell lines derived from Ptch+/- mice. Using this new model, we identify activation of the RAS/MAPK pathway circumvents Shh pathway-dependency, drives tumor growth and enhances metastatic behavior.Together these findings reveal a critical role of RAS/MAPK pathway in drug resistance and tumor evolution of Shh pathway-dependent tumors. We performed gene expression profile analysis of SMB cells, in vivo primary MB, as well as cerebellum of normal P6 and adult mice. We also compared gene expression profiles of SMB cells to those of growth factor treated and RAS transformed cells. 24 mouse samples were collected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays, including 3 normal cerebellar as control, 3 primary tumor samples and 18 cell samples with different treatment conditions. We first compared gene expression profiles of SMB cells to those of in vivo primary MB and normal cerebellum. We then compared gene expression profiles of SMB cells to those of growth factor treated and RAS transformed cells.

Project description:In recent years, histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) have garnered considerable interest for the treatment of adult and pediatric malignant brain tumors. However, owing to their broad-spectrum nature and inability to effectively penetrate the blood-brain barrier, HDACi have failed to provide significant clinical benefit to glioblastoma (GBM) patients to date. Moreover, global inhibition of HDACs results in widespread toxicity, highlighting the need for selective isoform targeting. While no isoform-specific HDACi are currently available, the second-generation hydroxamic acid-based HDACi quisinostat possesses sub-nanomolar specificity for class I HDAC isoforms, particularly HDAC1 and 2. Recently, we demonstrated that HDAC1 is the essential HDAC in GBM. Here, we panalyzed the neuro-pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic and radiation-sensitizing properties of quisinostat in preclinical models of GBM. We found that quisinostat is a well-tolerated and brain-penetrant molecule that significantly extended survival when administered in combination with radiation in vivo. The pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic-efficacy relationship was established by correlating free drug concentrations and evidence of target modulation in the brain with survival benefit. Together, these data provide a strong rationale for clinical development of quisinostat as a radiosensitizer for the treatment of GBM.

Project description:Aberrant activation of Hedgehog pathway is responsible for initiation and maintenance of various cancers, including medulloblastoma (MB), basal cell carcinoma (BCC), and other solid and hematological tumors. Therefore, targeting Hh pathway represents promising therapeutic prospects for Hh-driven cancers. In recent years, tremendous efforts have been dedicated to the discovery of Hh pathway inhibitor. While the majority of Hh pathway inhibitors target the upstream membrane protein Smoothened (SMO). Here, we performed Next Generation Sequencing to reveal the target genes of Hh pathway by treating mouse SHH-subtype medulloblastoma cells (SmoWT) with SMO inhibitor (GDC0449) or DMSO.
